17 Months Recap
Well, Moxie is 17 months old and more of a person every day. She likes to dance, sing, read books, and play with her monkey. She has more signs and words--mostly related to animals. Moxie's first chore is feeding the dogs. She is very careful to put scoopfuls of food in each of their bowls. She is teething--we think molars. Dad did her hair :)

Valentine's Day
The Dorsey-Lee Family attempted making valentines this year. We had two tries: one with finger paint and the other with markers.
The finger paint didn't go as I planned (surprise!). Moxie was less a fan of finger painting than I thought she would be but towards the end she stepped up and slapped some paint on paper. We used cookie cutters to make heart shapes too. Then she took a break at the end and rested her head on my leg.

Our second effort was today with a box of hologram dinosaur valentines. We gave Moxie markers and let her go to town. In both tries we taped the thing she was painting to keep it still. That seemed to be a win.
We are sending out a couple and giving some to our friends at daycare. Really it was about seeing if we could do any kind of art. Turns out we can. So that's fun!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
Snow Day!
We have a snow day today! We had a wonderful time playing outside!! Moxie prefers life without gloves--but we struggled to keep her from frost bite. She couldn't walk in the snow so she traveled by sled. Yay!
